Adaptive Water Management

The Word Economic Forum identified the water crisis as one of the largest risks for the global economy. The daily impact of droughts and flooding is felt by industry, businesses, farmers and civilians around the world. How do you make sure there is enough water now and in the future? Sea level rises, increased salinization, changed land use and an increasing demand for water creates a mismatch between the demand for water and water availability. Wageningen University & Research offers innovations, extensive knowledge and quantification as well as ecosystem based solutions for the purpose of increasing the value of water.
